Winter Tourist Rush Peaks in Sikkim
Dec 27, 2025Sikkim is witnessing a heavy influx of tourists this winter season, with several popular destinations reporting full occupancy. Most hotels in Lachung, North Sikkim, are sold out, reflecting the strong demand during the peak winter period.
Tourist hotspots in East Sikkim, including Nathula Pass and Zuluk, have also seen a significant rise in visitor numbers since December 22. Gangtok and Pelling are experiencing a sharp increase in hotel bookings as well.
Adventure tourism, particularly bike tourism, has grown substantially compared to last year, leading to a shortage of rental bikes across the state. Meanwhile, North Sikkim remains fully booked due to the compulsory two-night, one-day booking system currently in place.
The surge highlights Sikkim’s growing popularity as a winter travel destination.
